"Kennesaw" arose from the Cherokee work for <em>burial ground</em> after battles took place there during the Civil War at the Battle of Kennesaw Mountain. Today, Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park contains many of these historic spots. First Lady Laura Bush designated Kennesaw a Preserve America Community in 2004.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-jdaIovMdTa0/VuHn3cAUS8I/AAAAAAAAF9g/zawQXUvCENE/s1600/Kennesaw%2BGA%2BMap%2BLocation.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="242" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-jdaIovMdTa0/VuHn3cAUS8I/AAAAAAAAF9g/zawQXUvCENE/s400/Kennesaw%2BGA%2BMap%2BLocation.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: center;">Kennesaw Georgia Real Estate Available</h3><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Homes For Sale - <a href="http://www.northatlantahometeam.com/results-gallery/?sort=popularity&amp;status=A&amp;city=10104&amp;proptype=SF" target="_blank"><b><i>visit</i></b></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">Attached Residential Townhomes / Condos -<a href="http://www.northatlantahometeam.com/results-gallery/?sort=popularity&amp;status=A&amp;city=10104&amp;proptype=C%2CVT" target="_blank"> <b><i>visit</i></b></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">Land For Sale In Kennesaw - <a href="http://www.northatlantahometeam.com/results-gallery/?sort=popularity&amp;status=A&amp;city=10104&amp;proptype=VC" target="_blank"><b><i>visit</i></b></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">As it is home to Kennesaw State University, the population of 18-25 year old's has grown over the past few years and there is a ton to do.
